Walks in South West England

The counties of Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire

Granite Tors on Dartmoor

Being a northerner most of my walking is naturally done in areas close to home but there are other parts of Great Britain which have a special attraction to me. The counties of South West England are such places for not only do they have fabulous coastlines and the iconic South West Coast Path to draw walkers from far and wide but they have many inland treats too such as Dartmoor, Bodmin Moor, Exmoor, the Quantock Hills, the Blackdown Hills, the Mendips and the Dorset Downs. I can't access them often but when I do I enjoy them to the full as this selection of spectacular walks demonstrates. And keep checking out this section, I aim to add more and more walks to it in the future.
